* project summary
The project goal is to support BIOS emulation on BHyVe, enabling boot
from disk image.
I going to focus booting FreeBSD/amd64 from disk image on this GSoC,
but final goal is to make BHyVe able to support more guest OSes.
* Implement sample pseudo-BIOS
Implemented sample pseudo-BIOS witch call VMCALL at BIOS entry address.
Implement "bhyvebiosloader" will next step for week 3.
